ADA Power Sand

ADA Power Sand – 2L

🌱 Product Overview

ADA Power Sand is a nutrient-rich base substrate designed to support healthy root development and beneficial microbial activity in planted aquariums. Made with porous volcanic materials and organic nutrients, it helps maintain water circulation within the substrate while providing nutrients for aquatic plant roots.

Used beneath the main planting substrate, Power Sand forms a supportive foundation for long-term planted aquarium layouts, particularly Nature Aquarium setups. Source: ADA

✨ Key Features

• Nutrient-Rich Base Layer: Supplies nutrients to aquatic plant roots over time.

• Porous Structure: Helps maintain water circulation within the substrate.

• Supports Beneficial Microorganisms: Provides conditions that encourage microbial activity in the substrate.

• Helps Reduce Substrate Compaction: Its porous volcanic materials help preserve spaces for water movement.

• Designed for Planted Aquariums: Works as part of a layered substrate system beneath the main planting substrate.

🪴 Application & Usage

Spread ADA Power Sand over the aquarium base before adding the main substrate, such as ADA Aqua Soil. Select the appropriate granule size according to the aquarium's water depth.

Power Sand is a base layer, not a standalone planting substrate. Cover it completely with the main substrate before filling the aquarium.
